I have a cube (8meg+330+od) that I wish to link to a sun 3/260 via UUCP. I have added this system to L.sys: Ucalamity Any;5 ACU 2400 5551212 \ "" \r ogin:~3-\b-ogin:~5 Ucalamity ssword:~3 tunafish and added an account: Ucalamity::5:4:distant system:/usr/spool/uucppublic:/usr/lib/uucp/uucico added an entry to L-devices: ACU cua unused 2400 hayestone2400 I have used tip with the cua dialing device to successfully reach this system. However, uucico won't even pick up the phone; I try: uucico -r1 -x4 -scalamity I get: uucp calamity (8/7-18:19-2762) DEBUG (Local Enabled) finds (calamity) called uucp calamity (8/7-18:19-2762) FAILED (call to calamity ) Any success stories with UUCP will be gladly heard. Thanks. Christopher Penrose penrose@esosun.css.gov

You need to replace that one. > >I have used tip with the cua dialing device to successfully reach this >system. However, uucico won't even pick up the phone; I try: Here, though, I think we are at the real problem. I am assuming you are attempting to call you NeXT and it won't answer. You need to modify your /etc/tty file to tell the computer to answer the modem and run a getty. The getty will ask for a name and passord (uucp tunafish), and then run whatever shell is in the account (/usr/lib/uucp/uucico). > >uucico -r1 -x4 -scalamity Uh, you said your system name was Ucalamity, now you are claiming it is calamity. In your L.sys file, you most likely want to change the Ucalamity to calamity. But before I get into that, tell me if calamity is the sun. Michael Rutman Cubist Software Ventures #include <std.discl>
